Chapter 732: Sea of Souls
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
"Everyone please hold steady, we need to accelerate!"
The Cardinal piloted by David broke through streaks of berserk Spirit World pollution amidst the broad and boundless Spirit World space, heading towards the large swaths of fluorescence flickering in the distance.
"Look over there quickly!"
Because the Cardinal ship used extremely fast speed seeking to break through the increasingly turbulent scarlet mist all around, Fisher and Gou Wen on the ship strove to support themselves by holding on with their hands. Simultaneously raising their heads looking extremely far away, they then saw the entire Barrier seemingly igniting emitting violent golden light.
Amidst the golden light ignited by that Barrier, Fisher finally witnessed with his own eyes the scene represented by the noun heard countless times in the past...
[The Ultimate].
Under Gou Wen's reminder, Fisher and Emhart in his embrace simultaneously raised their eyes looking into the distance, then seeing a trace of pitch-black bursting from a certain corner of the dazzling golden awns of that Barrier, exactly like a corner of shattered glass, that incongruous cracking paved by darkness appearing amidst an expanse of broad golden color...
And in the center of that cracking, then concealed the only passage leading to the universe outside the Barrier.
That Ultimate should be massive, merely because the distance from Fisher was too far, so at this moment looking over Fisher only felt that Ultimate was extremely small, appearing indistinctly visible under the cover of that golden awn."Hamon Hamon's Authority inside the Ultimate has come in."
"Fisher, we have no way to cross the Sea of Souls, only you can go over!"
Fisher was slightly startled, suddenly recalling the side of the Sea of Souls close to the Ultimate was exactly the location of the Gods, while the ranks of Gou Wen and David were insufficient, unable to look directly at the face of True Gods. While he ever since entering the Mythic Rank had already either read or sealed five Completion Handbooks, coincidentally catapulting from the Fifteenth Tier to the Twentieth-Tier.
But the sense of acquiring rank to Fisher seemingly wasn't that obvious. Exactly as what Heon said previously, his true body as a Chaos-kin originally was a Mythical Species. The Demi-Human Completion Handbook was more like returning the rank originally belonging to him little by little, letting him use the human body transformed by Usurping Life to utilize the rank, rather than utilizing the main body of a Chaos-kin...
Is utilizing rank with a human body an important matter?
Perhaps it's important ba, at least this way it can constantly remind Fisher what he is, and what he is not.
And just now after the Demi-Human Completion Handbook prompted him finishing reading the Cardinal Completion Handbook, he had already possessed the qualification to meet True Gods face-to-face... meaning to say, he could see what Renee's main body looked like?
Fisher blinked his eyes, very quickly placing his attention onto official matters. He said to Gou Wen and David,
"Then let me enter the Sea of Souls, you guys wait for me outside the Sea of Souls! Gou Wen, Emhart is also left to you."
Fisher reached out taking Emhart out, tossing him to Gou Wen amidst his "Aiyo" sound. Subsequently he then focusedly looked towards the front, waiting for David to send him to the Sea of Souls.
"We're almost there, when the time comes you directly..."
Gou Wen nodded, hugging the reluctant Emhart into his embrace. But before the arrangements in his words finished speaking, exactly as that ship carrying Fisher bit by bit approached the Sea of Souls, that Sea of Souls that had lain across the Spirit World for tens of thousands of years remaining exceptionally silent suddenly trembled.
Above that resplendent, pure tangible soul suddenly gave birth to waves of tide, like tentacles, like waves coming towards the ship's side amidst Gou Wen's astonished gaze.
"This!"
"Gurgle gurgle..."
Fisher was slightly startled, looking at that suddenly active Sea of Souls still totally in the dark,
"What happened to the Sea of Souls, is it abnormal like this?"
"Abnormal, very abnormal... this Sea of Souls hasn't had any movement for how many years already, even the soul circulation and transformation with reality has always been silent and still, but why..."
"Baby... baby baby baby baby..."
Exactly at the same time, from the soul tide rising from that Sea of Souls surprisingly transmitted sounds exactly like thousands of singers performing together in chorus. Clearly different languages, clearly sounds spoken by different individuals instead made Fisher feel exceptionally intimate.
He was slightly startled, asking towards Gou Wen,
"Did you hear it, that Sea of Souls seems to be speaking..."
"What? I didn't hear anything ah, are you..."
"Bang!!"
In the next second, the entire ship was hit by the tide set off by that Sea of Souls, causing it to start uncontrollably deflecting sideways, emitting crisp "crack, crack, crack" sounds.
Fisher hurriedly lowered his head, merely gently extending a hand striking on the deck, that massive force then canceled out the pulling produced by the Sea of Souls in the void, making the hull about to capsize return to normal again.
"Baby... baby baby baby baby..."
The murmurs from all directions sounded simultaneously. Fisher turned his head to look, only then discovering the surging tide had already blocked the front and back of the hull completely impassable.
It's coming towards himself...
Thinking of this, Fisher frowned looking at the surging Sea of Souls below, saying to Gou Wen,
"Take good care of Emhart."
"Why does this look so much like entrusting an orphan..."
Gou Wen's face was covered in black lines hugging the square Emhart in his embrace, a kind of déjà vu welling up in his heart leaving him temporarily speechless.
While Fisher merely smiled a bit, subsequently glanced at the unbearably restless Sea of Souls below, then suddenly leaped over the railing before him plummeting downward.
"Whoosh!"
At the instant Fisher detached from the ship falling downward, that Sea of Souls heavily surrounding the ship then exactly like losing strength fell downward together following him. While in mid-air, looking at the ship regaining freedom above, Fisher couldn't help letting out a sigh of relief, able to place attention below himself.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
The resplendent Stream of Souls below grew increasingly closer. Fisher took a deep breath, violently plummeting downward, but that massive force falling downward instead vanished at the instant contacting that Sea of Souls. Exactly like a dragonfly touching the water dotted layers of ripples upon the Sea of Souls...
"Drip drip... drop drop..."
Fisher found himself slightly startled. Not knowing why, when he came into contact with the Sea of Souls beneath him, all sounds beside his ears seemingly were stripped away, only leaving the extremely silent sounds of splashing water drops as well as his own panting.
"Ha..."
As if, the entire Sea of Souls possessed only him alone.
He let out a long breath, raising his head looking towards the place above where he fell from. The ship piloted by Gou Wen still remained in the distance, yet exactly like entangled by clouds and mist, unable to see the specifics clearly.
The Sea of Souls all around became silent and serene at the instant Fisher landed, while Fisher also suddenly birthed a sense of security of returning home from within his heart, exactly like when staying in Sister Teresa's embrace during childhood.
"Home huh... truly calculating, here should exactly be the source place of the precious property within my body right?"
Fisher thought thus, amidst exclaiming admiration instead also didn't forget the objective of coming here, he still had to move towards the direction of the Ultimate.
"Step..."
"Baby..."
He just took a step out, stepping on the soul tide full of flickering fluorescence beneath his feet then echoed out layers of ripples following his footsteps, simultaneously from those ripples gave birth to the most sincere calling.
Is Helaire calling himself?
This was Fisher's first thought. After all this originally was her possession, wouldn't she unavoidably borrow the Sea of Souls to once again vie for the property within his body?
But listening to the ethereal, exactly like unconscious calling beneath his feet, Fisher instead suddenly felt it wasn't, this sound was more like this expanse of Sea of Souls calling himself?
He leaned down bewilderedly, looking towards the crystal clear Stream of Souls below, measuring within it. And within it also exactly like responding gave birth to transparent tentacles one after another, stroking up onto his body and cheeks, gentle and respectful exactly like making a pilgrimage, exactly like worshipping.
"Baby..."
Very quickly, not only beneath Fisher's feet, from below the "water surface" all around him all began rising and falling semi-transparent existences of different shapes after another. They gingerly extended their tentacles, exactly like caressing, exactly like doting stroking up onto Fisher's spine, arms, cheeks...
"Baby..."
"Baby..."
Fisher was slightly startled, turning head looking around, only then discovering these masses of irregular transparent objects running out from the Sea of Souls surprisingly all were...
Chaos-kin?
But all were very weak, completely unable to compare with the demigod Pisces Fisher encountered previously. Even many weren't slightly stronger than humans, more like a mass of living beings having just agglomerated together barely possessing form and consciousness...
"You are..."
"Baby..."
"Baby..."
From that chorus of identical callings, Fisher instead exactly like psychic understood their meaning.
They were all saying, "We are your guardians."
"Guardians... you are also Chaos-kin, no, are you also stars?"
"Baby... baby..."
"Sure enough, merely because you are too weak, so unable to detach from the Sea of Souls existing independently huh..."
Actually Chaos-kin also included these overly weak souls. Only because these weak individuals were unable to detach from the Sea of Souls thereby causing the Chaos-kin truly presenting before the living beings of reality to all be extremely powerful Mythical Species.
"Baby..."
Behind lacked no bold little Chaos-kin extending tentacles surrounding Fisher's body, hugging him. And then still fondling admiringly used that semi-transparent body exactly like jelly to rub against his back,
"Baby... baby..."
"Where do you want to take me?"
"Baby..."
"But I am going to the Ultimate now, over there still needs my help."
"Baby... baby..."
"In one direction?"
Fisher pondered for a moment, still stood up, turning head looking around. His body already hung several little Chaos-kin tightly hugging him fondling admiringly, his hands still led several Chaos-kin's tentacles, exactly like leading little children one after another.
And even if so, behind them, there were still many little Chaos-kin failing to touch Fisher squeezing rushing wanting to approach him.
"Don't rush don't rush... which way are we going?"
Not knowing why, when seeing these little Chaos-kin, Fisher always felt intimacy, as if they once accompanied himself for a very long time, so even talking became somewhat patient.
"Baby..."
"Let's go."
Fisher exactly like burdened with a family brought this large group of little Chaos-kin moving forward. While walking Fisher also caringly looked at the direction of the Ultimate, that golden light grew increasingly condensed, while the brilliance bursting from the darkness outside the Ultimate exactly meant Hamon Hamon's Authority hadn't completely entered the Ultimate.
"Step..."
"Step..."
And unknowingly, following the path indicated by this group of little Chaos-kin, the Sea of Souls all around suddenly produced undulations in height.
Fisher felt the downward tilt, thus turning head looking around, then discovering here already exactly was the central position of the entire ring-shaped Sea of Souls. Exactly the fluorescence pouring down from here completed the recurring soul rotation with the living beings of reality.
And this central position, surprisingly was a depression exactly akin to a whirlpool, collapsing downward, leaving exactly a gap like a wound, like a fissure...
In the center of that whirlpool the fluorescence was dim, as if there, deep within the entire Sea of Souls lacked something thereby causing to produce this defect exactly like a whirlpool.
"..."
"Baby..."
"You guys are saying, I exactly came from here?"
"Baby... baby baby baby baby..."
"..."
This group of little Chaos-kin said, it was a woman coming and going without a trace. At that time all guardians didn't discover her traces, also not knowing how she came here, how she discovered the treasure buried deep within this Sea of Souls. Anyway it exactly was one day she came here, taking away that precious thing.
"Baby!!"
Mentioning that woman, all little Chaos-kin around exactly like boiling simultaneously all got furious not lightly, and even more extremely directly jumping up and down on Fisher's body, venting their righteous indignation.
Fisher bit by bit walked into that dim center of the Sea of Souls, lowering his head looking at the vacancy within that profound soul. Not knowing why, he seemingly again heard a woman muttering to herself speaking in a certain language with cadence and modulation,
"In the future one day will you exactly like a child blaming his mother blame me?"
"Blame me for creating you without passing your agreement, bringing you to this dangerous world?"
Fisher lowered his head looking at the dim place below, suddenly remaining silent. But all little Chaos-kin beside him chirped and chattered,
"Baby... baby baby..."
Fisher's gaze flashed, he said softly,
"So it was like this. Do you hope I return the precious property within my body guarded by you?"
"Baby... baby..."
"Hoping I come back, what does this mean?"
"Baby..."
Listening to the identical repetitions beside his ears, Fisher sighed a breath, merely saying,
"Even if I return that precious property, will [the Ocean] let off this world stealing you all and the precious property within my body?"
"..."
All little Chaos-kin around became silent. Amidst uttering not a single word, merely using the small yet kind compound eyes within those semi-transparent bodies blinked and blinked looking towards Fisher.
"Right..."
Fisher laughed bitterly once, subsequently slowly standing up, taking a look at the little Chaos-kin looking blankly at himself all around.
Looking at their blankly looking up appearances, Fisher shook his head, preparing to continue walking towards the direction of the Barrier front. But the little Chaos-kin all around blankly staring the previous moment instead suddenly anxiously grabbed onto him,
"Baby... baby baby..."
"No need to persuade me anymore, there are still important people waiting for me."
"Baby..."
"Fisher, so great, you are here..."
Right at this time, above the Sea of Souls, an ethereal voice sounded. Simultaneously a streak of bright and clean moonlight poured down, illuminating the surface of the Sea of Souls brightly, also frightening the little Chaos-kin originally surrounding Fisher into shrinking back into the Sea of Souls completely.
Also illuminating this undulating surface of the ring-shaped sea. Looking from above, surrounding the whirlpool where Fisher stood just now, surprisingly distributed four whirlpools of varying sizes at unequal distances. Also as if something exactly like Fisher, originally belonging to the Sea of Souls left the Sea of Souls.
Merely looking from the dim degree of fluorescence, those four whirlpools of varying sizes were exceptionally shallow, not as profound as the whirlpool Fisher came from...
Only those little Chaos-kin serving as guardians knew, there, once awakened four avatars...
While at this time, Fisher hearing Renee's sound hurriedly raised his head looking towards the direction of that moonlight. Not knowing whether it was looking forward to seeing the true source of that moonlight, but at the instant Fisher raised his eyes, that moonlight then abruptly dispersed. Replacing it, was the figure of the Witch Fisher couldn't be more familiar with.
Fisher blinked his eyes, truly couldn't explain clearly whether it was disappointment or what. Watching her slowly fall from high in the sky he then hurriedly extended arms catching her body.
"Plop!"
Her fragrant and soft delicate body entered his embrace, carrying specks of moonlight crashing into Fisher's embrace, solidly caught by him.
The Renee in his embrace panted for a moment, expression somewhat hesitant. Actually only she herself knew, originally just now seeing Fisher already able to look directly at her main body she planned to use her main body to manifest...
But at the final moment... final moment...
Mhm, she still chickened out, hurriedly transforming the avatar appearing before Fisher's eyes again.
"Your main body..."
"Still... still before the Barrier ne, right now is exactly when True God's Authority enters the Barrier, it's the time needing full concentration, how could my main body... main body leave without authorization... Anyway it exactly is like this."
Renee mumbled embarrassedly, forcefully making up a reason making a pass.
Merely in this aspect her tiny bit of capability was truly insufficient to look at before Fisher, merely taking a glance Fisher then knew what she was thinking.
No rush, should be able to see it very soon.
Fisher was instead optimistic, merely raising eyes looking towards the direction of the Ultimate, softly saying to Renee,
"Actually I truly don't mind..."
"Aiya, already said already said main body is still at the Barrier, didn't come over..."
"Yes yes."
Renee's cheeks puffed up at once, again about to extend pink fists to beat this annoying Fisher's shoulder, yet was grabbed by the wrist by him in one grab.
Renee was just about to blow her top, yet saw Fisher's expression had already become serious,
"Renee, look."
Only then did Renee use her main body turning head to look, then seeing an oval substance continuously twisting, continuously qualitatively changing, continuously struggling had already broken through the blockade of the Barrier, officially entering this world.
